Key Identification
To ensure you have the correct replacement key, it is crucial to identify the lock code. The lock code for Wesko keys (W001-W799 series) is typically found in one of two locations:
- On your original key: The code (e.g., W011) is usually stamped directly onto the key head.
- On the face of the lock: If the original key is lost, the code may be stamped on the visible part of the lock cylinder itself.
The Wesko W011 key is cut on an IN8-W key blank, which is a standard blank for this series.
Setup and Usage
The Wesko W011 replacement key is designed for straightforward use with compatible office furniture locks.
- Verify Compatibility: Before attempting to use the key, ensure the lock code on your furniture matches "W011".
- Insert Key: Gently insert the key into the lock cylinder. Do not force the key if it does not slide in smoothly.
- Turn Key: Once fully inserted, turn the key clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the lock mechanism) to engage or disengage the lock.
- Remove Key: After locking or unlocking, return the key to its original insertion position before removing it.
This key is compatible with various brands that use Wesko lock systems, including ARTOPEX, COREY HIEBRT, GLOBAL, LINCORA, OFFICE SPECIALTY, PUNDRA, SHAW WALKER, SIGNORE, SMED, TURNSTONE PAYBACK, and WESKO.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance of your key and lock can extend their lifespan and ensure smooth operation.
- Keep Clean: Periodically wipe the key with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust or debris.
- Avoid Bending: Store the key in a manner that prevents it from bending or being subjected to excessive force, which could deform its shape.
- Lubrication (for lock): If the lock mechanism becomes stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant (not oil-based lubricants) can be applied directly into the lock cylinder. Consult your furniture manufacturer's guidelines for specific lock maintenance.
- Duplicate Keys: If you require additional copies, ensure they are cut by a reputable locksmith using the correct IN8-W blank and the precise W011 code.
